My favorite line : "And we fought all night to get back to this?"

[bradrice]

The play by play of the DJ with the luscious lips and sultry voice really added to the pace and tension of this cult favorite. Love this flick!

I thought this movie was a bit over the top, but i was wrong. I'm an Aussie & my best friend at school was a New York Yank. His pop died in '81 & left him & his bro a fortune. He returned to Manhattan & bought a 5 story railroad building on Hudson near Worth. He invited me to visit him all expenses paid in '83. Of course I went. I was shocked by the dilapidation of the surrounding buildings & quite frankly scared shitless to even leave his place after dark. It was so scary I didn't visit him in NY for nearly 10 yrs

Back in the day, I owned a couple video stores. We couldn't keep this movie on the shelves. We would hold movie night on the weekends and run a film on one of the big screen T.V.s that we sold. Warriors always drew a standing room only crowd. Love this movie!

[charlesdavis]

This is my favorite film of all times I still watch it to this day

[jironthunder]

Swan is the man, the best scene was the baseball furies fight.

[RedPillLife]

Grew up in NYC back then. The city was violent already, movies had nothing to do with it. That movie was awesome!

[wilfredoverson]

there was no mention of the female DJ who kept everyone informed as to how the Warriors were getting on

[mayorb]

Joe Walsh wrote the song "In the City", it plays after the final credits in the movie.
The Eagles decided to include in on their Long Run album released later that year.

One of the best gang movies ever, I remember seeing right after it was released, still watch it every year.

[gaylenjones]

Arguably the greatest film of all time. Best Film, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Song, Best Score, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Supporting Actress should have been won by ALL the Warriors. Can you dig it!

[tambor]

Native of Brooklyn that basically grew up with this film. I still think about it whenever I walk the five miles or so from my house to the Wonder Wheel in Coney.

[kenelliott]

Why no mention of James Remar? His character, Ajax, was my favorite.

I couldn't believe it!!! I've watched The Warriors dozens of times growing up. Total cult classic. Fast forward to around 2008, I was working in a restaurant in Florida and a new guy started. Over the first few weeks of everyone getting to know him, he would tell fantastical stories of things he had done, one more unbelievable than the other. The first was that he used to have a big 30ft yacht. Then he said he had won the lottery twice. Then he said he had acted in a soap opera when younger. I wasn't buying any of it and was rolling my eyes with each new story. Then he asked if I had ever seen the movie The Warriors and that he had been an extra in it. That was it. I called BS. Well about a month later, he brings in a picture of him at the helm of the 30 footer, wife right next to him. He did actually win the lottery twice. One was tax free in the Bahamas and that's how he bought the boat. He did act in a season of one of the big soaps when he was younger, back in the 70's. I then had to go out and rent The Warriors on VHS at the local basement mom and pop movie rental and fast forwarded to the big speech in the beginning about fighting over the little piece of turf...and stop.... there he was in the shirt and necklace, right where he said he was. I couldn't believe it. We became the best of friends for the next year and a half. He sadly passed away due to chronic health concerns. I miss him more than I can say. Long live the true Warriors!

Favorite Scene was The Warriors Encounter With The Baseball Furies, the Look On The Warriors Faces Faces When They Exit The Train Station is So Iconic ! Hands Down The Best Scene in The Movie

[txmarko]

I also LOVE the background music during the Baseball Furies

[MWEric]

$4million to make made $22million in theaters a net profit of $18million not bad for a movie that flew under the radar.

[roycox]

I was a baseball fury for Halloween one year in college and everyone said, ” damn, why didn’t I think of that!” I always loved the look of the film and how they created the look of the furies gang. Epic!

[ScratchyBaws]

A Clockwork Orange 1971, Scum 79, The Warriors 79 & The Wanderers 79 are four iconic movies from that decade.

[TheSavageRepairman]

I graduated High School in 1979 and this movie was so much fun to watch. The Gaurdian Angels hated this movie.
